woody Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Hi all, Can you get Castrol TTS from Halfords anymore?? The only stuff they stock now is Castrol Power1 Racing, in a gold 1litre bottle. Is this the same stuff? Can it be used instead of TTS?? cheers for your help, Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nigel_d. Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 It is where I get mine and I believe it is the same stuff, have flown a few hours on it with no probs. Nige Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aquatix Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 Yes, identical bar the packaging ... even tastes the same (hic) ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted July 22, 2011 Author Share Posted July 22, 2011 Cheers guys!! I knew I could rely on this forum for an answer. Aswell I've been using ZX1 Microlube Oil in my TTS and on my Black Devil I've been getting about 4 1/2 litres an hour... Cheers again, Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morgy Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 What was you getting before you used microlube Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paramotormike Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Just to be clear, the UK Castrol people say it’s not necessarily exactly the same, but so close, as not to be any kind of problem. They retain the right to improve their product etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

enzo200500 Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Could just be some unsold stock left over. I order mine in boxes of 12 from Opie oils, and managed to get some of the 'older' bottles. Same stuff, or as good as. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woody Posted July 23, 2011 Author Share Posted July 23, 2011 @Morgy - my fuel consumption improved by at least 0.5 litres an hour. @Outkast - i coolant find any on Harlow so I ended up at Enfield. I'm probably flying Westmill tomorrow late afternoon Dave. You be there?? Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Aswell I've been using ZX1 Microlube Oil WOW, about 10 years ago, I was the only distributor for Extralube ZX1. I even sold it to Halfords!! Great stuff, use it for Drag Racing for years. SW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woody Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 About 6:30 to 7pm. Just looked at the ballooning forecast 6-9kts should be ok. Woody Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
